If you or your company is looking to fund its very first game release on Kickstarter, there are some unique challenges to overcome. Kickstarter backers are a savvy lot, and (like any investor) they are going to be more wary of spending their dollars on an untested company rather than on one who has successfully put out a product and proven they can produce a good game.
